WordPress 4.9 brings important improvements and new functions for the Customizer so that you can more easily adjust your site’s design. You can now send a link to share drafts of your changes with your team, publish changes at scheduled times and even lock your changes from editing by other designers.

WordPress 4.9 also offers a new gallery widget and an improved text widget that supports images, audio and videos.

In my 1and1 control panel my blog site shows as Standard, so I tried to follow your instructions above, but there is no “Updates” from my WordPress Dashboard so I cannot “Select Updates and click Update Now”.

if you don’t get any update notifications in your WordPress dashboard, then you might be already on the latest version, which should be 4.9.2 since yesterday. Maybe WordPress auto-updated itself in the meantime. You should be able to see the version number in the footer of your WordPress dashboard.
